With the condition of the city of Padang which is prone to disasters, it is very necessary for community participation, especially in the prevention of the stages of the pre-disaster (disaster mitigation), during the emergency response, and post-disaster because the people who deal directly with the disaster. Schools play an important role and have several functions in disaster risk reduction including facilitating and cooperating with the surrounding environment, improving community skills, refugee centers when disaster strikes. Therefore it is necessary to conduct activities that can improve the understanding and skills of young school communities, especially students in disaster mitigation and disaster response.

Abstract

Entering the new normal era, some people think that the threat of Covid-19 is nothing to fear. But in reality the number of new cases of patients infected with Covid-19 is increasing. This proves that awareness of the Corona virus transmission still needs to be improved. Especially for pre-prosperous families whose access to information is limited. Limited health workers providing education to all levels of society are also an obstacle in the midst of this pandemic. The aim of this activity is to increase the knowledge of the underprivileged community about how to prevent the transmission of the Covid-19 virus. The method of implementing this activity is door-to-door education to underprivileged families living in the village of Sungai Buluh Selatan, Kabupaten Padang Pariaman, the majority of whom work as factory workers and daily laborers. Education was carried out using the media module/booklet and was carried out for three days, namely 1-3 July, 2020, to 32 pre-prosperous families who had been recommended by the head of the jorong. Education includes how to prevent the transmission of the Covid-19 virus, implement clean and healthy living habits, how to do physical/social distancing and how to use the right cloth masks, and make environmental disinfectants with cheap materials. The results of the evaluation show an increase in family understanding and motivation regarding the prevention of Covid-19 transmission. Continuous education is still very much needed, especially for underprivileged families whose access to information sources is limited.

Abstract

Lack of information about Covid-19 issues also causes the elderly and their families to be afraid to visit health services due to being infected with Covid-19. Many elderly who have a history of chronic diseases such as hypertension, heart disease and diabetes were reluctant to carry out control at the Health Care Centre. The purpose of this service was to provide education regarding the transmission of Covid-19 and conduct health checks on the elderly of Melati Community related to chronic diseases. This activity was carried out with a personal approach by taking into account the health protocols of the pandemic. Educational activities and medical health checks were used for the elderly, such as TTV, blood sugar, cholesterol, uric acid, and nutritional status checks. These included outdoor exercise activities for the elderly. The community services activity team provided pocketbooks related to healthy elderly during the Covid-19 pandemic to help realize SMART (Healthy, Independent, Active, and Productive) for the elderly. The results of the examination showed that the elderly had hypertension at 45%, high uric acid at 35.4%, blood sugar levels above 200 as much as 9.2%, and high cholesterol at 80%. For that reason, older people must continue carrying out medical health checks periodically even though they are in a pandemic situation. Furthermore, the medical activity for the elderly has to involve their closest families, even carrying out independent checks at home in coordination with the availability of health workers in their zone.

Abstract

Community compliance to implement health protocols began to slacken in New Normal Period. This decrease in compliance is in line with the sloping rate of Covid-19 transmission in West Sumatra. There was a new case of Covid-19 again on November 1, 2021, after reaching a peak case during the pandemic. Education on social media such as TV, Facebook, and Instagram, which has been intensively carried out so far, has not been able to increase the knowledge and motivation of the community to carry out health protocols and Covid-19 vaccination. Based on the early observations, one community did not wear a face mask when doing activities due to a lack of trust in Covid-19. The results of further interviews with members of a social community found doubts about the Halal status of the current vaccination. Therefore, providing an educational method closer to the community was essential by attending group activities outside, such as Majelis Taklim at the Nurul Huda Mosque, Padang, West Sumatra. The educational method was implemented offline and given a pre-test and post-test to know the value. This activity was carried out on November 4, 2021. The results of the evaluation showed that there was an increase in public knowledge about health protocols and vaccinations in Padang.
